EYES INA WATCH-CAsE.
A New Wrinkle That Is Within the
Reach of Every Girl,

The lover has long ago passed from
the era of watch-chains made of his
true loves hair and little plaits of it in
gold lOckets and rings. He has had
her photograph stuck in his watch, and
some have gone so far as to have the
face painted on the dial. The head on
the locket has become commonplace.
Wearing her ring exists to some ex-
tent, but it is apt to prove give-away,
and big signet ring on young lady's
hand is palpably out of place. The
locked bangle and the hair bracelet and
the medallion brooch have been done to
death land now am informed by young
lady who is au fait in such matters that
the latest wrinkle is to cut the eyes out
of her photograph and stick them
in your watchcase OF in a double
locket, or in hidden-spring brace
let, or carry them in your waist
coat pocket, or stick them on your scarf,
or gum them inside of your hat, says a
writer in the San Francisco Chronicle.
Well, Il suppose we must have something
new. Everybody can't afford to do the
gold ring business or paint her likeness
on the face of his watch. And the great
merit of the new wrinkle is that it is
within the reach of the humblest
maiden or the haughtiest belle.

sted. After serving his time he went
to Copenhagen, studying two years at
the Royal Art academy, receiving di-
ploma for excellence in ornamentatiOn,
mudel figure drawing and oil painting.
While at work in decorating the
imperial palace at Stockholm,
Sweden, he attended the Royal
Academy of Art IN that city, receiving
diploma from the Antique school. He
afterwards devoted several gears to
scene painting, finally coming to the
United States in 1866, where for two
years he was in the employ of Chicago
firm. 1t was shortly after his arrival
that he was sent to Minneapolis to freSco
the First Universalist church, and so
impressed was he with the beauty of
country and the evident future of the
Northwest that in 1869 he became cit
izen of Minneapolis, and many of the
churches, public buildings and private
edifices bear evidence of his skill. Every
summer Mr.. Clausen devotes a portion
of his time to studying natural scenery.
Among his studies from nature the
most remarkable is the picture of st.
Anthony's falls, including both sides
and the island, painted in 1869. Last
summer he visited the Yellowstone Ma
tional park, and sketched in oil thirty of
the most prominent and popular scenes

known men of modern times. His father
was an honest, Woodworking blacksmith;
his mother woman of excellent quail
ties. Like Hans Christian Andersen, he
went, quite boy, to Copenhagen, cut
did not, like him, find his fortune there.
He now engaged as sailor, and finally
landed in Philadelphia May L, 1859. 'As
became me, being now free man in
free country, put on my considering
cap and reckoned up the best way in
which l should proceed to make myfOf :

cisco, Cal, where he tried Ito dig his
way into fortune" He has succeeded,
and may to-day be considered as one ef
the most substantial Danish y citi-
Zens in the United States. 1t might
not be out of the way to state that he
has been in the wine business some
thing like twenty years: has large
house in Philadelphia, and one in this
city at 24749 Hennepin avenue. He
buys his stock direct from the vineyards
and different distillerieS; he imports in
large quantities his goods. The emf
nent fine qualities of his California
wines and his French wines and brand
dies have earned for him first-ciaSs
trade among the best people of thiScity.

Looking at Women,s Feet,

THE CONSTITUTION (EXECUTIVE

POWER).
The administrative authority is vest
ed in the king and the judicial power
in the officers of the law. The king
cannot, without the consent of the rigs
dag, accept regal dignities in any
foreign state. He must profess the
evangelical form of Lutheran Protestant
ism established in Denmark, and al
though he attains his majority at the
age of eighteen, he cannot exercise any
regal prerogative until he has by oath
and in writing pledged himself, in
presence of the council of state, to MAIN
tain the laws of the realm. He is ir-
responsible, and his person is sacred.
The succession is hereditary in the male
line, conformably to the law of 31st of
July, 1858. The kings executive pre-
rogative includes that of nominating and
diSmiSSlng men holding appointments
under the state, declaring war and max
ing peace, and entering into and abro-
eating treaties of peace, war or COM
merce; the concurrence of the rigSdag
being required, however, in all cases in
Nolvlng the cesSion of any portion of the
Danish dominionS or the modification of
the existing integrity of the state. The
king, with whom rests the choice of the
ministry, may change at his pleasure the
HuiuDSl vi IIlS lllllllSlcIS dlltt llle clldTdc-
ter of the portfolios intrusted to them,
and, as at present constituted, the min

ell and seven ministers, VIZ: for foreign
affairs, war, marine, finance, justice,
home affairs, church and education.

stead, where grandmother or elderly
aunt, or other friend near and dear, was
deservedly famous for her green apple
pies? The old kitchen, low ceiled, with
the deal table close to the flour chest,
where every morning pies were made
big, generous pies, of great rotundity
like the maker, and not at
all ''skimped" in the filling.
What though the dear old dame
has to take her foury hands from the
dough to drive the too obtruSive chick

lished, returns to her work without first
call the remarkable fluting on the border
of those country pies, made with care
full precision with the good housewives
thumb? The viyidneSS made by the
pies of youth is best illustrated in the
grey-bearded citizen, who shakes his
head over the desserts of his city home
and tells his grandchildren with shade
of longing that years cannot subdue, of
the pies his aunt used to make OH the
farm in Maine. But this is a depression.

emphatically not a Dorcas society, and
conversation is confined to the business

class thus far heard from was
one regularly organized, which met
one afternoon week in the
kitchens of the owners. A dozen ladies
belonged, one being the instructor.
